“I love you @davecantin 💋 Happy Birthday 🎈 Here’s to a lifetime of HAPPY HEALTHY Birthday celebrations together 🥂❤️,” she continued, adding the hashtag, #40andLeukemiaFREE.
Teresa Giudice sent Cantinn well wishes in the comments section, writing, “Happy Birthday @davecantin have the best birthday,” along with several celebratory emojis.
According to the Asbury Park Press, Cantin was first diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukemia in 2011, which his doctor told him was treatable with the use of chemotherapy pills.
“You’ll be back to work in a month,” the doctor told Cantin. “You’re not going to run the Boston Marathon, but you’re going to live.” Just seven days later, Cantin returned to his job and weeks later, he completed the Boston Marathon.
The outlet reported via PEOPLE that in 2016, Cantin was taking chemotherapy pills twice a day.
